The beneficiaries .. if their MACHIAVELLIAN PLAN had succeeded .. are regrouping still hoping to reap from the project gone sour .. youtu.be/e14BQXnLFMI Interesting stuff .. SEE WIKILEAKS .. 1) - Karua (the then justice minister) &Wetangule (the then foreign minister) were PNUs reps in all matters that touched PEV & cases related ..
